Dr. Wu’s paper has been published in the Journal of Bone and Mineral Research.

This study uncovers an important mechanism underlying skeletal development and growth—specifically, it identifies the cellular origin of the population responsible for forming the dorsal (back) side of limb bones (arms and legs). This paper will also serve as Dr. Wu’s doctoral thesis.

Congratulations, Wu san!
